Title: Ball joint mounting bolts size
Post by: Settings on August 31, 2010, 04:13:15 am

I snapped all three of the ball joint bolts in the mounting plate  :P  Mangled them pretty bad by the time I got them out.
Does anyone know diameter and thread of the OEM bolts?

Thanks
Jer

Think I found them...

VW part number N10127706
Hex Bolt M8x26   

Unless anyone knows, I'll assume standard pitch 1.25. I see the JIS bolts are 1.0
Usually I would just buy the nuts and bolts together but the mounting plate has the nuts fastened to it already.
